บท 1488: Something Unexpected

"So what?" Yao Ning asked. "Do we just give up?"

"What do we do then?" Alex asked. "We don't have enough money."

"But… to just give up…" Yao Ning couldn't help but frown a little. "Surely we can do something? Maybe Pearl has it?"

"Do you have any money, Pearl?" Alex asked.

"About a thousand spirit stones," Pearl said. "Nearly not enough now."

"See?" Alex said. "We don't have the money."

"I asked General Fan too. He doesn't have any at all," Liang Shufen said.

"What about those painters?" Yao Ning asked.

"I asked Tian Honglui and he was not here at all," Alex said.

"And his senior?" Yao Ning asked. "What was it, Ran?" 

"Senior Ran?" Alex asked and wondered for a bit before shaking his head. "I don't have his talisman."

"That's… what do we do then?" Yao Ning asked.
